This study was carried out to determine and compare the apparent digestibility of dry matter (DM), crude protein (CP), crude fat (CF), gross energy (GE), and the apparent availability of minerals (P, Ca, Mg, Mn, Cu, and Zn) of emergent (leaf and petiole), submerged (root and rhizome) and total biomass meal of water hyacinth for Nile tilapia. Four diets were prepared, containing 0.10% chromic oxide-III, one being the reference diet (purified) and the others containing 30% of each ingredient. The […]
